We have a host of machines that are currently connected via an
ethernet using network address 180.0 . All the machines support the
Bsd 4.2 UNIX style remote commands, shells and logins. We would like
to extend our ethernet to communicate with another group of machines.
They want to have a seperate network address of 192.0 and again use
the Bsd 4.2 UNIX type of commands. I ran a test and there was no
problems in doing this over one ethernet. The problem I have is how to
communicate between the two networks. I put both networks hosts
address in /etc/hosts yet they apparently did not recognize the other
network. When I tried telnet and ftp, they told me the network was
unreachable when I tried to access a machine from the other network.
My first question is how do I access the other network sharing the
same ethernet. My second question is if I can somehow access the other
network, can I get the usual Bsd 4.2 UNIX type of remote commands?
